TOR literary aud social culture the details OF whth he
has reserved until its success has been clearly demon
strated His scheme was to form ~hat he has called
Home Culture Clubs, and the plan may DC pes' out
lined in his own words: .
These Home Cultdre Clubs are founded on the ldea
OF avoiding certain long recognized drawbacks tna'
attend other schemes for the elevation oil the IN
dviduas in the less fortunate walks OF lie Lecture
courses, reading rooms, and the worK OF the 1oung
Mems Christian Associations 0fer the means OF eIeva
ton to those who supposed TO need encouragement
In halls or less public, and IN almost every case
completely removed from the domestic lie oil the IN
diyidua. The Chautauqua circles occupy the opposite
pole they addressed to the individual IN DIS
entire privacy. The Home Culture Clubs propose TO
occupy middle ground and present mode OF WORK
that is unsecaran in character and not STRIVING io
the abatement OF any public evil the elevation oil
class but the mutual benefit OF the ihdViau''
for each ones SAFE. The clubs are intended TO
consist Of not more than six members each, anu 10
at least half that number OF noiEe- hus
the clubs instead of substracting from add to tho
home Weekly meetings are held from house to house.
and great liberty is allowed the members III selecting
the common pursuit by which they Will seek thcii
mutual culture. The leaders OF the ccbs are pcked
Inen and omen OF tact and attapments and the mum
Der OF each club is kept small that persona! contac,
shall be the closer and that each home Represented
shall feel the influence of the clubs presence once
every few weeks. In addition to week., meetings tne
clubs gather in general meeting about once IN siA
weeks for evenings entertainment, pnOiic iatne.
than social meeting and to make their own and hear
each others reports OF the work DONE and IN general
to get the stimulation encouragement OF metncs,
petitive effort and the knowledge OF one another
mistakes and SUCCESSES" -,
1t was intended that these clubs should DC OF riom
growth but there now ak in active operatio. -
this city and new ones are being formed every week.
In one month these clubs have read l2,OOo pages
from the standard authors and literary taste naa
been developed in all the members most OF whom ar
employees in the factories and mills The success OF
the undertaking is already assured and MI ,aoo
anticipates that other clubs will be formed in ADJOINING
